Lord God, whose blessed Son our Savior gave his body to be whipped and his face to be spit upon: Give us grace to accept joyfully the sufferings of the present time, confident of the glory that shall be revealed; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

On Sunday, we'll be singing this new setting of Ps. 142 by Jamie Soles, a Christian musician in northern Alberta, Can. You should check his music out!

Jamie Soles made the music, the lyrics are used with permission from the Canadian Reformed Book Of Praise.

We have been doing a series of sermons on worship. Tomorrow, we are asking, Is there an order to our worship? The basic outline comes from what we see when Aaron and his sons were ordained as priests in Lev. 9: sin offer, burnt (or better, "ascension") offering, followed by fellowship ("peace") offering.

1. cleansing from sin
2. consecration through word and prayer
3. communion with God in the Lord's Supper

While there may be many different ways to put this together, most Christian churches have these elements (though they may only have the Supper occasionally).

Tomorrow, in Sunday school, we will be looking at the magisterial Q 26 from the Heidelberg Catechism
26. What do you believe when you say, “I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth”?

That the eternal Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who of nothing made heaven and earth with all that is in them,1 who likewise upholds, and governs them by His eternal counsel and providence,2 is for the sake of Christ, His Son, my God and my Father,3 in whom I so trust as to have no doubt that He will provide me with all things necessary for body and soul;4 and further, that whatever evil He sends upon me in this valley of tears, He will turn to my good;5 for He is able to do it, being Almighty God,6 and willing also, being a faithful Father.7
